Podcast Description:

Hey there, love!

Let me introduce you to an incredible, free-spirited midlifer who is embracing an adventurous life and doing it on her terms.

At the age of 45 Wendy realized something had to change.

Lying on her bathroom floor reeling from the loss of her marriage, the death of her brother, and feeling as though all had been lost Wendy remembered that you have the power to change your world, simply by changing your thoughts. It was in the midst of this midlife meltdown that she made a decision…to take the road less traveled. Wendy chose to get up and believe in herself and know that this time, the comeback was for her, not for those around her. With an overwhelming amount of debt looming, she found a job, moved to Chicago, and within a year was debt-free and making the bold move to live out her dream.

On this episode of Curiosity. Clarity. Empowerment. Wendy shares not only her experiences but also the mindset shifts and action steps she had to take in order to live a life that is not only fulfilling but is also one that she knows will make her proud to have experienced Wendy fully in this lifetime.
